The Princess to Eight Uncles Chapter 654

Chapter 654 What Are You?

Blake stopped explaining, as he felt that there was no end to this.

The case was shrouded in fog and mystery, making it a magnet for influencers who thrive on clout. Many of the videos circulating online were obviously fabricated, yet they managed to deceive a significant number of people.

As everyone engaged in their own investigation, they became convinced that their speculations held the truth. It was akin to advising an elderly person at home not to rely on folk remedies and instead seek treatment at a reputable hospital. However, the elderly person stubbornly insists that hospitals were deceitful and doctors were scam artists.

However, weren’t those who promote folk remedies deceiving others for their own personal gain?

When faced with a crisis, they could not find anyone to rely on. They would resort to purchasing mysterious remedies passed down through generations, without knowing what ingredients they contained. It was a case of blindly placing faith in unverified products, and they were a prime example.

“Did you find anything?” Blake asked.

Lilly furrowed her brow, staring intently for a while, and then shook her head, saying, “No.”

She continued, “But it’s okay, I’ll take care of it!”

Lilly grabbed a handful of talismans, muttered some words, and threw them into the air with a clatter.

The scattered talismans ignited with a green flame before quickly vanishing. The alley remained silent, and nothing unusual appeared.

Lilly exclaimed, “Oops! Why isn’t the magic working?”

Josh interjected, “This can’t be…”

He could not understand how his sister, who possessed such great power, could fail.

Hannah pondered, “Was your posture incorrect?”

Zachary furrowed his brow, stating, “Regardless of her posture, Lils is always right. There’s absolutely no reason for her to be wrong.”

It seemed that there was truly nothing more to be found in this place.

Blake made a guess, “Perhaps she didn’t die here.”

Josh shook his head, saying, “No, I saw her outside… when it was bright…”

Suddenly, his eyes widened!

Through the dark alley, they could see a girl floating on the street outside the café.

Her body was scorched black, and she wore pale clothes.

Occasionally, as the wind blew, her curled-up feet would be exposed. She remained motionless as if she could appear right in front of them in the next second.

“Lils!” Josh exclaimed in horror, “What’s that?”

Oh my goodness!

Help!

Josh felt like he was being watched.

There was a girl floating on the street.

Lilly stared intently at her, and Blake had a defensive stance, feeling the tension rise.

Zachary and Hannah were confused and anxious, saying, “Where is it? Why can’t I see anything?”

Zachary only felt a chilling breeze and looked outside through the alley, sensing that something was amiss.

Although Hannah could not see anything, she was still scared.

“Josh… where’s your camera?” Hannah asked, “Take… take a photo! Show us what you’ve captured…”

Josh, with trembling hands, warned, “I advise you not to look…”

He tried to retrieve his camera, but for some reason, he could not control his hands.

The girl raised her head, emitting a creaking sound… It seemed that her scorched and rigid neck was difficult to lift.

She stared straight at them in the alley.

Lilly ran out immediately.

Blake followed closely behind, ready to shield his daughter at any moment.

Josh struggled to take out his camera but failed, and he was about to reach out and grab Lilly’s arm, but instead, he grasped at empty air.

The siblings could not hold their younger sister’s hand, so they screamed in shock:

“Lils, wait for me!”

“Lilly, I’m scared! Ahhh!”

Lilly dashed out of the alley and stood at the coffee shop’s entrance once again.

The girl they had seen moments ago vanished.

The street was quiet, with nothing unusual, except for the occasional passing of a car on the road.

The wind was strong that night, blowing the uncollected garbage from the alley and causing it to roll to the street corner.

Suddenly, a sound resonated, as something fell to the ground in the alley.

In the stillness of the night, a faint click shattered Josh’s nerves.

He turned his head and saw the girl standing right behind him!

The girl raised her scorched hand and placed it on Josh’s shoulder. Her eyes bulged from the burns, with white eyeballs contrasting against her charred face, creating a horrifying sight.

With her burnt hand on Joshwen’s shoulder, she slowly opened her mouth…

Josh exclaimed, “Oh my God!”

Why was it him again?

“Lils…” Joshwen cried out in terror.

Lilly swiftly turned her head and dashed forward.

With a sudden leap, she jumped up and landed on the walls lining both sides of the alley.

Lilly’s small figure was as fast as lightning, rushing straight toward the female ghost.

In mid-air, she raised her hand, a talisman appearing between her index and middle fingers, firmly held in place.

With a flick of her wrist, Lilly, like a streak of lightning, it flew straight toward the female ghost.

Over the heads of Josh and the others, Lilly collided with the ghost, sending her flying with a resounding thud. The talisman was stuck to the ghost’s head.

Lilly somersaulted and rolled on the ground before quickly pinching another talisman between her fingers and throwing it out, charging forward like a majestic dragon.

Her presence was commanding and audacious.

“Boohoo…”

In the silence of the night, the female ghost let out a mournful cry.

She transformed into black smoke and disappeared in an instant.

Without wasting a moment, Lilly took out the jar of souls and hurled it out.

“Go, Pikajar!”

Lilly shouted and kicked back the escaping black smoke.

The jar of souls opened its mouth wide and greedily sucked in all the black smoke.

Suddenly, the jar of souls coughed, emitting two puffs of black smoke from its mouth.

The spirits within the gourd, harem spirit, and the others, escaped as they coughed.

“Cough, cough, cough!… Hey, sweety, what were you grabbing onto?”

The harem spirit chimed in, “Yeah, is that smoke?”

All the ghosts were perplexed.

What had been captured seemed quite formidable.

That smoke was so powerful, they were shocked Lilly did not ask for their help.

The cowardly ghost asked anxiously, “Lilly, are you alright? Did you get hurt?”

The memories of catching King Libra still lingered vividly in their minds. The image of Lilly covered in bloodstains and scars over her arms, left the cowardly ghost in a state of terror.

Lilly shook her head in response to Micheal’s concern. “I’m fine, Michael.”

Josh’s legs were still trembling. Hey, what about him?

He let out a frustrated sigh, wondering why it was always him and not Zachary or Hannah.

The harem spirit gazed suspiciously at the jar of souls, expressing his doubts. “You caught it, but I don’t think it will stay obedient. What is this thing?”

The unlucky ghost cradled Tinkerbell in his arms and replied, “I have no idea. If I hadn’t picked up Tinkerbell, she would have choked to death.”

The female ghost in the wedding dress added, “I’ve never seen such a weird person.”

Lilly’s gaze remained fixed on the jar of souls as she asked in a hushed voice, “What are you?”
